Code sample
The following code sample demonstrates how to use the ExportGeodatabaseToS57 function to export to an S-57 file.
# Import arcpy module
import arcpy
# Tool variables
src_gdb = r'C:\Data\Connection Files\nsbisdb4_pacific_pl@editor.sde'
product = 'US5M3978'
output_path = r'C:\Data'
export_type = 'NEW_EDITION'
product_config = r'C:\Data\NIS_Product_custom.xml'
clip_option = 'DO_NOT_CLIP'
sample = 'SAMPLE_EXPORT'
# Execute the tool
arcpy.maritime.ExportGeodatabaseToS57(src_gdb, product, export_type, output_path, product_config, clip_option, sample)
